Our After-Dinner Speaker:
​
Dave Hicks
​
​
​
Dave was the 1st President of the Sauble and Area Men’s Club when it was resurrected in the early 2000’s.
​
Dave as chair of the Men’s Club, some 20 years ago now, championed the sponsoring by the Men’s Club of the clean well project for impoverished families in a central jungle area of Cambodia. He continued helping those remote communities with the construction of their first school which has expanded to include both elementary and secondary students. Those first primary grade children have grown to be parents; their children are now starting in that remote jungle school.
​
Dave was invited this past January to go to Cambodia for his return visit to the school. Dave’s trip was an amazing journey that included meeting an elephant casually walking down a jungle village’s Main Street, visiting a jungle gas station, riding a Cambodian jungle train that was literally built while he watched.
​
Please join us as Dave takes us on an unforgettable journey that you will never find on Trip Advisor or any travel brochure, AND it all started here with our own Men’s Club.
